Advance Written Notice (AWN)

Navigating health plan coverage policies can be complex. Quest Diagnostics is here to help. Health plans do not cover all healthcare services. In certain cases, for tests that Quest knows are likely not covered based on a health plan’s policies, we’ll issue you an Advance Written Notification (AWN) to notify you of your potential financial responsibility, and we’ll ask that you review and sign it if you’d like to proceed with the service(s).
